video Altoid Guitar
when i posted the slideshow, i never thought of posting a video of it, and how it sounds, so here it is. i just used a lighter for the slide (works surprisingly well). keep your eyes peeled for the instructable!!

I think it's funny that people are suggesting ways to play various songs using tabs. The guitar has no frets!

I made one and it sounds exactly like that, but i only used a paintstick from Lowes, an altoids tin, 3 guitar strings, some duct tape, screws and a Queen of clubs card.

where do you get the tuning pegs?

To play bad to the bone go 0-5-3-0 in the beat of the song on any string(probably the lowest) the 5,3,and 0 refer to the fret(space) number

I do play guitar and the way I learned is on the low e string
